lyrics

I’M ALL HERE NOW, MAGDALENE

Gold leaves tumbling through my hair.
Sweet dreams in my garden chair.
I woke to find that I was old.
Strange world I could not recognize.
Cracked hands and lines around my eyes.
I heard you say, “Come in from the cold.”

We’ve only got moments to live.
A little life before the heart stops pumping.
One first kiss at age thirteen.
There’s nothing left for me there.
It’s vanished in thin air.
But I’m all here now, Magdalene.

Snowfall turned your head to white.
Your body bathed in winter light.
I woke to find our love was new.
All my big plans and ego trips.
Sweet praise from some young stranger’s lips.
None of that compares to you.

We’ve only got moments to live.
A deep breath before the bomb explodes.
A night in Paris by limousine.
There’s nothing left for me there.
It’s vanished in thin air.
But I’m all here now, Magdalene.
I’m all here now, Magdalene.

I went to my old school.
But my school was gone.
I reached out for a friend.
But there wasn’t one.
It’s down to you now, Magdalene.

Dark rooms filled with bitter laughs.
My face erased from photographs.
I dreamed last night I was a ghost.
I walked through walls unrecognized.
And in my pain I realized:
It’s your love I need the most.

It’s only moments we live.
Freeze frame before the car goes off the road.
A few wild weekends in New Orleans.
There’s nothing left for me there.
It’s vanished in thin air.
But I’m all here now, Magdalene.
I’m all here now, Magdalene.
I’m all here now, Magdalene.
